It's taken years to find the perfect venue for a class in Lewes and now I have!

I'm thrilled to announce a new class on Wednesday mornings 9.30-10.45.

The location is the OLD Subud centre on Station Street which has all the elements I wanted. It's bright and airy while still being warm. It has a wooden floor, it's pretty quiet being off street and it has brand new, rather lovely toilets!

I will keep the class to a maximum of 10 and it will be aimed at women at midlife and beyond.

Entitled Slow Mindful Yoga, the aim is to put you at ease in your body and mind while still building strength and flexibility.

Combining asana, pranayama, mindfulness and meditation over each 8 week block, you will develop skills you can take into daily life to help you take this stage of life in your stride.

DM me if interested.

I hope to start classes no later than the start of June.

Who's interested?

A good way to start the year is by checking in with yourself. A body scan is a great way to do this. Noticing each part of your body and your response to it could generate the intention you need to take through the winter months.

Join me at this month's Slow Sunday on January 4th 9.30-11.00 for a gentle and mindful start to the year.

Being grounded literally means cultivating a relationship, a presence with the ground. If you're mind is busy with life and planning for Christmas, then Slow Sunday this weekend (14th December), could be just what you need.

We will be staying close to the ground with slow, somatic movements and relaxing in savasana while practicing Yoga Nidra to release any tension from your body and leave you feeling restored and ready to face the last two weeks in the run up to Christmas.

Only 5 per session £24

Do you wear your shoulders around your ears? Shoulders become protracted (rounded) due to low mood which can for some, be brought on by the change in season and light.

Conversely, the same shape can be caused by poor posture due the lengthy periods of sitting hunched over.

This posture reduces our capacity to fill the lungs. It also communicates a negative message to the nervous system; that we are stressed regardless of our reality.

Through poses and stretches, using props and breath, we can open the body up to increase greater lung capacity, elongate the exhalation and in so doing, induce a sense of calm and relaxation that affirms a positive message to the nervous system.

This will be our intention this Slow Sunday as we cultivate Spaciousness that benefits both mind and body.

Just a couple of spaces left - 9.30-11.00.

Spaciousness is something we lack at times of high stress. We can stress the body with too much training, creating physical tension. And when life is busy, we have very little 'head' space.

In our next Slow Sunday on 9th November, we will use tools that help us to rediscover that much needed sense of space as we head towards the festive season.

Max 5 spaces.

It's never too late to start Yoga. You are not too stiff, too heavy or too weak to begin. It helps to be able to get up and down from the ground but by recruiting props and developing slowly, with plenty of repetition over 8 weeks, you will learn to listen to your body.

Over a further 8 weeks, you will practice mindfulness and cultivate respect for yourself. You will learn to honour the mind and body you have received and to take practices from your mat, into daily life.

You will be part of a small, intimate group of 5 women at midlife and beyond. Classes are in a comfortable, domestic setting in Barcombe, near Lewes.

Start with a friend or alone and develop something worthwhile that will see you into the future with a positive attitude, a flexible body and mind.

With a background in Scaravelli inspired Hatha Yoga combined with Yoga Therapy for the Mind, you will be in safe hands.

Starts Wednesday 7th January 9.30-10.45 or privately at a time that suits us both.
